"Terrifyingly dirty"? The simple way they clean the gutters with the fountains on the corners is amazing to me as an American. Layers of dirt on beautiful buildings? They're several hundred years old. Felt quite unsafe even i

I agree re: cannibalizing Akamai and I don't have any inside knowledge at all, just a fan of theirs and the last two companies I've worked for have both been customers. There's the security/WAF stuff that could be hugel

I kid you not, I wrote and posted this whole thing in less than 5 minutes this morning after having bought the TV yesterday. The word "clickbait" is giving me too much credit, yet here we are.

I googled for this news using every combination I could think of, because the services event last week or whatever, but couldn't find this. That was also the paragraph I left out - that I'm sure as soon as I relent and buy a new

I don't have a citation, but I have read repeatedly that stock analysts cite "overpaying" their workers as a place where they could cut costs and boost short term profits.

Ok thank you. I'm originally from Avondale, the Atlanta suburb that is the birthplace of the Waffle House, but I moved up to NJ 15 years ago and have never understood what the deal is with people and Wawa. I think I get it now.

The day I was sold on ditching the headphone jack was actually last week when a giant wave surprised us and nearly washed my wife's (brand new) phone away at the beach. We took it back to the house, rinsed all the sand and salt water
